[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5829795, member: 2805"] I almost feel.sorry for you TN guys. Down here in MS, if you want to deer hunt and you don't own land, the cheapest lease you will find is $7 per acre. And that's some crappy habitat. I'm paying $10 per acre for terrible hunting, but paying extra for the convenience of it being 8 miles outside a town of 75,000 people. But if you want to hunt deer with annual potential of 140 class... well that's up to $40 per acre all day long. It's considered normal to pay $1000 per year for a deer lease that's 1 hunter per 80 acres. You can find some for $500 per year memberships, but they are running 1 member per 50 acres. Decent camps are $2500 per year, and there's thousands of folks who don't bat an eye at that. $5000 per year dues get you into the potential for a 140 class buck, but you won't set foot in the door on the best managed properties that shoot 4 or 5 140 class bucks annually for less than $10,000, and most of those are also equity clubs with a 350,000 to 750,000 buy in. I guess we just have a lot more discretionary income when it comes to deer hunting. [/QUOTE]
